Now where's Carnivale, HBO!?
LOS ANGELES, March 30, 2005 - HBO has renewed the Emmy® and Golden Globe-winning western drama series DEADWOOD for a third season, it was announced today by Carolyn Strauss, president, HBO Entertainment.

Well, it does sort of seem a go fuck yourself to "Carnivale," doesn't it?
The day after Carnivale ends its second season, they renew Deadwood halfway through its run.

This hardly a shocker, but great news anyway. And I've become intrigued with this Carnivale show, although I've only seen a few minutes of one episode.
